Register for the Sustainability Award 2025

Are you a grower and a member of Royal FloraHolland? Then you can participate—together with your supplier or partner in the chain, if you wish. Just make sure that you, as the grower, submit the sustainable innovation.

Condition for innovation:

For this award, we are looking for innovations that contribute to more sustainable floriculture. These may be product innovations, such as environmentally friendly packaging or products that contribute to added value for people and the environment. Business or process innovations are also eligible. Examples include smarter use of water and energy, less waste, better working conditions, or the use of new technologies in cultivation or business operations. The examples mentioned are illustrative and not exhaustive—all ideas that contribute to a more sustainable and future-proof sector are welcome.

The sustainable innovation must have demonstrably appeared on the market or be in practical use by the closing date for entries (August 31, 2025).

The sustainable innovation must not be more than two years old at the time of registration.

You can submit multiple innovations, but the jury will select one innovation per grower for participation.
